Disappointed

Roxana

Appointment verified by Zenoti

Very disappointing experience. The quality of the treatment received is worsening from one time to the next. The appointments are never as long as advertised but yesterday it was ridiculous: 29 minutes instead of 40. On the clock. And the time of the actual use of the GENEO machine was 15 mins at the most. The rest was just a facial massage. I had this treatment enough times already to know what it should involve. It really was disappointing yesterday and for the price, really upsetting. No eye cream either at the end… poor quality service.

I'm always apprehensive when visiting a new salon, being naturally a shy person. Alice greeted me and gave me a tremendous massage that left me feeling relaxed, and very pleased with how many knots she got rid of in my shoulders.

Afterwards, Alice and (I believe Lisa?) Were tremendously friendly and made me happy and feeling welcomed. I will certainly be coming back. :)

Came in for gel removals and re paint. When I booked my appointment I changed it around a couple times and Carol was extremely helpful and accomodating. From entering the salon Carol was very friendly and you can tell she really enjoys her job, she made me feel very welcome just a super bubbly person. I had ***** do my nails she was nice although I didn't find her easy to chat to but I think that was just the age difference however she was friendly enough. I can't say I feel my nails were done to the highest standard, they seem very lumpy and messy around the edges however she did ask me numerous times throughout the treatment if they were okay and I said yes as I didn't want to complain or make a fuss so I do realise I should of said something at the time. I had a voucher and i wasn't happy about paying the remaining balance as I didn't feel completely happy at the end of the appointment.

Jamie put me at ease very quickly and was incredibly professional during my treatment and made me feel like a valued customer straight away. I don’t usually rebook before I’ve left following my first session at a new salon as I have often needed time to consider the treatment and service I have received, but this was not the case at Studio 8 - thank you so much, see you next time!
